To date, there have been only six cases of eyelid EPC reported in the literature. EPC has significant risk of recurrence and metastases after local excision. It is therefore important to consider it in the differential diagnosis of malignant eyelid tumour. A histological diagnosis should prompt wide margin excision, assessment of the patient for regional lymph node involvement, and imaging for metastatic disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
